If we only have love
Then tomorrow will dawn
And the days of our years
Will rise on that morn
If we only have love
To embrace without fears
We will kiss with our eyes
We will sleep without tears
If we only have love
With our arms open wide
Then the young and the old
Will stand at our side
If we only have love
Love that's falling like rain
Then the parched desert earth
Will grow green again
If we only have love
For the hymn that we shout
For the song that we sing
Then we'll have a way out
If we only have love
We can reach those in pain
We can heal all our wounds
We can use our own names
If we only have love
We can melt all the guns
And then give the new world
To our daughters and sons
If we only have love
Then Jerusalem stands
And then death has no shadow
There are no foreign lands
If we only have love
We will never bow down
We'll be tall as the pines
Neither heroes nor clowns
If we only have love
Then we'll only be men
And we'll drink from the Grail
To be born once again
Then with nothing at all
But the little we are
We'll have conquered all time
All space, the sun and the stars
Then tomorrow will dawn
And the days of our years
Will rise on that morn
If we only have love
To embrace without fears
We will kiss with our eyes
We will sleep without tears
If we only have love
With our arms open wide
Then the young and the old
Will stand at our side
If we only have love

Voices all across the nation
Echo in my mind
In the streets
In the factories
In the towns
Living out what imagination made real
Got to leave the old world behind
Use a fantasy
Imagination is real
I'm so much in love
I can't explain
Imaginations real
Build your dreams
And make them strong
Imaginations real

Hatred
Fear of what's to come
Don't cry
Can't you feel it inside
Can't you see it's the only way it can be
For our past has left us alone
With a cold reality
Imagination made real
If you use a dream
To change a mind

In my father's house are many mansions
If it were not true he would have told me so
He has gone away to live in that bright city
He's preparing me a mansion there I know
Jesus died upon the cross to bear my sorrow
Freely died that souls like you might have new life
But I know that soon there'll come a bright tomorrow
When the world will all be free from sin and strife
Do not shun the saviors love, from up in glory
Or you won't be there to sing the gospel story
In my father's house are many mansions
If you're true then to this land you'll surely go.
If it were not true he would have told me so
He has gone away to live in that bright city

You know people been talking about the end of time, ever since time began
We've been living in the last days, ever since the first day, ever since the dawn of Man
Well nobody knows when the end is coming, but some people tell you they do
Well it might be today, it might be tomorrow, or in a million years or two
In the meantime, in between time, let us make time, to make it right
And let us not fear what is not clear Faith should be your guide, just follow this advice
And!
Think about love, think about living
Think about love, sharing and giving
Drop this Doomsday attitude, let the spirit flow
These are wonderful times we're living in
God still walks in the hearts of Men
And Eden's garden waits within so let the flowers grow
Well we rant and we rave about the "good ol' days" and how different it was "back then"
Well the greatest days we've ever known, are the days we're living in
Well we worry about earthquakes, aliens from outer space, nuclear holocaust
Well we're so consumed with the fear of dying; the joy of living is lost
In the meantime, in between time, let us make time, to make amends
Live the good life, just treat this planet right, and try to all be friends and say with me again
Ohhh...!
Think about life, think about living
Think about love, caring and giving
Drop this Doomsday attitude, and get on with the show
We've walked on the moon, been to Mars
Technically we've come so far
But still we wonder who we are
The farther along we go
(Doodle-doodle doo-doo-doo...ooh-ooh)
You know people been talking about the end of time, ever since time began
We've been living in the last days, ever since the first day, ever since the dawn of Man
Well nobody knows when the end is coming, well that's what the Scriptures say
But that's a secret known only to God, He says to just watch and pray
In the meantime, what's the hurry?
In the meantime, now don't you worry
In the meantime, live, laugh, be merry
In the meantime, in the meantime
In the meantime, troubles gonna show us
In the meantime, the sky is still above us
In the meantime, you know God's gonna love us
In the meantime, in the meantime, in the meantime

Is this the only way
For the wheel keeps turning
Is there no other way
Ooh, my heart is yearning
There is hope in your eyes
And all the people say
You're a star
And you're playing the part
But how long do you think it will last
I know you, you're not so innocent
No way out
Well not by your intellect
Who are you
With no time to resurrect
Who are you
You say you're the president
I can't wait any longer
Ooh, my love's getting stronger
Ooh
Why do we need you so
Is there no other way
To lead our children home
There is a light that shines on you
You're in a hole and I'm in it too
Is this the only way
For the wheel keeps turning
Is there no other way
Ooh, my heart is yearning
AII your world's a disguise
For big business deals, oil bribes
Clever men, but where are the wise
Cause in reality, freedom lies
Who are you, smug in your intellect
Dishing out old fashioned politics
Money, war, solves everything it seems
Nothin' new, same as it's ever been

But for the grace of God it could be you instead of him

Lift up the fallin' ones and be a friend (be a friend)

Well a man walked down by Galilee
So the Holy Book does say
And a great multitude was gathered there
Without a thing to eat for days
Up stepped a little boy with a basket
Please take this Lord he said
And with just a five loaves and two little fishes
Five thousand had fish and bread
Who was it ev'rybody (it was Jesus)
Who was it ev'rybody (it was Jesus)
Who was it ev'rybody (it was Jesus)
It was Jesus Christ our Lord
Now pay close attention little children
It's somebody you oughta know
You know it's all about a man that walked on earth
Nearly two thousand years ago
Well he healed the sick and afflicted
And he raised 'em from the dead
Then they nailed him on an ol' rugged cross
And put thorns on his head
Who was it ev'rybody (it was Jesus)
Who was it ev'rybody (it was Jesus)
Who was it ev'rybody (it was Jesus)
It was Jesus Christ our Lord
Well they took him down and they buried him
And after the third day
When they came to his tomb well they knew he was gone
Cause the stone was rolled away
He's not here for he is risen
The angel of the Lord then said
And when they saw him walkin' with his nail-scared hands
They knew he came back from the dead
Who was it ev'rybody (it was Jesus)

They want your mind and your body
But they don't understand
And don't care much about it
Gotta work for your country
Society's built on concrete and money
If this room was to vanish
And the toys of man turned to civilized dust
There'd still be you and me, honey

Build those highways, build those cars
On a planet full of scrap metal
There'd better be life on Mars

Je ne pourrai m'en detacher
Je voudrais tant avoir raison
De la garder dans ma maison
J'etais seul, seul devant la vie
Mais je l'aime celle que j'ai choisie
Je defendrai mon Amour
Jusqu'a la fin de mes jours
Je me demande jour et nuit
Si tout ce qui m'arrive
C'est ma chance de revivre
Et de refaire ma vie
Mais je crois bien avoir trouve
Le grand Amour et le vrai bonheur
Je ne peux pas m'etre trompe
Je ne veux plus d'un autre coeur
Mais oui j'espere avoir enfin
Trouve l'Amour sur mon chemin
J'etais seul, seul devant la vie
Mais je l'aime celle que j'ai choisie
Je defendrai mon Amour
Jusqu'a la fin de mes jours
Mais oui je defendrai mon Amour

John Daniel came to town one summer afternoon
Wearin' dirty work clothes so everyone presumed
He was just another logger from the loggin' camp nearby
And he was, but there was somethin' different in John Daniel's eyes
John Daniel was a young man, not more than twenty-four
And there was an air about him that one could not ignore
And in spite of callused hands & dirty clothes, his face was kind
And I wanted so to know what was in John Daniel's mind
John Daniel, tell me where did you come from, tell me where is it you've been?
John Daniel, tell me why are you different from all of these other men?
John Daniel, there's somethin' about you that I don't quite understand
John Daniel, do you hold the answer to a higher plan?
I rented him a room, he went upstairs like all the rest
It was Saturday and he'd be goin' in to town, I guessed
But he left in a robe and sandals, with a Bible in his hand;
And I thought to myself, John Daniel, I don't understand
Now I'd planned to meet some friends of mine when I got off at three,
In the park we often gather to talk of love and peace
When I got there I found that a crowd had gathered 'round
And there I saw John Daniel a sittin' on the ground
John Daniel, tell me where did you come from, tell me where is it you've been?
John Daniel, tell me why are you different from all of these other men?
John Daniel, there's somethin' about you that I don't quite understand
John Daniel, do you hold the answer to a higher plan?
So, "You want to be free," he said, "Well, this is how you can."
As he read from the Bible he held in his hand
We were searchin' for the truth not knowin' where to look,
Not knowin' that the answers all were in John Daniel's book
John Daniel told us all how we could be free
John Daniel taught us all a better way for you and me
He came to us in our own way so we'd be sure to see
He had the light and essence of the man from Galilee
John Daniel, tell me where did you come from, tell me where is it you've been?
John Daniel, tell me why are you different from all of these other men?
John Daniel, there's something about you that I don't quite understand

[Spoken:]
Just like Mr. Greeley suggested
Back in the 1860s many young men went west
But they went with their pistols cocked
It seemed the only way to escape the horrors of war
But sometimes the horrors
Were even worst then the west
Back on the front, the losers
Johnny Reb they called him, fought all the way
[Song:]
Okay Johnny Reb, you can sound down the flag now
It's all over
Yeah you fought all the way Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb
You fought all the way, Johnny Reb
I saw you a marchin' with Robert E. Lee
You held your head high tryin' to win the victory
You fought for your folks but you didn't die in vain
And even though you lost they speak highly of your name
You fought all the way Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb
You fought all the way, Johnny Reb
I heard your teeth chatter from the cold outside
Saw the bullets open up the wounds in your side
Saw the young boys when they began to fall
There were tears in your eyes but you couldn't help at all
You fought all the way Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb
Yeah, you fought all the way, Johnny Reb
I saw General Lee raise a sabre in his hand
Heard the cannons roar as you made your last stand
You marched into battle with the Grey and the Red
When the smoke cleared away it took days to count the dead
Cause you fought all the way Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb
You fought all the way, Johnny Reb
And when President Lincoln heard the news of your fall
Everyone said there'd be a victory ball
But he asked the band if they would play "Dixie"
For you Johnny Reb and for what you believed
Cause you fought all the way Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb
You fought all the way, Johnny Reb
Yeah, you fought all the way Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb

And the walls come tumbling down
Good morning sister Mary

Well I wanna stop and talk with you

I know you've heard about Joshua
He was the son of Nun
He never stopped his work until
Until the work was done
God knows that

And the walls come tumbling down
You may talk about your men of Gideon
You may brag about your men of Saul
There's none like good old Joshua
At the battle of Jericho
Up to the walls of Jericho
He marched with spear in hand
Go blow them ram horns, Joshua cried
'Cause the battle is in my hands

And the walls come tumbling down
You may talk about your men of Gideon
You may brag about your king of Saul
There none like Joshua
At the battle of Jericho
They tell me, great God that Joshua’s spear
Was well nigh twelve feet long
And upon his hip was a double edged sword
And his mouth was a gospel horn
Yet bold and brave he stood
Salvation in his hand
Go blow them ram horns Joshua cried
'Cause the devil can't do you no harm
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho

Up to the walls of Jericho

Old Joshua shouted glory
And the walls came tumblin' down

What's the news, what's the news oh my bold Shelmalier
With your long barrelled guns from the sea
Say what wind from the south brings a messenger here
With the hymn of the dawn for the free
Goodly news, goodly news do I bring youth of Forth
Goodly news shall you hear Bargy man
For the boys march at dawn from the south to the north
Led by Kelly the boy from Killan
Tell me who is that giant with the gold curling hair
He who rides at the head of your band
Seven feet is his height with some inches to spare
And he looks like a king in command
Ah my boys that's the pride of the bold Shelmaliers
'Mongst greatest of hero's a man
Fling your beavers aloft and give three ringing cheers
For John Kelly the boy from Killan
Enniscorthy's in flames and old Wexford is won
And tomorrow the Barrow we will cross
On a hill o'er the town we have planted a gun
That will batter the gateway to Ross
All the Forth men and Bargy men will march o'er the heath
With brave Harvey to lead in the van
But the foremost of all in that grim gap of death
Will be Kelly the boy from Killan
But the gold sun of freedom grew darkened at Ross
And it set by the Slaney's red waves
And poor Wexford stripped naked, hung high on a cross
With her heart pierced by traitors and slaves
Glory-o, glory-o to her brave sons who died
For the cause of long down trodden man
Glory-o to Mount Leinster's own darling and pride
Dauntless Kelly the boy from Killan
With your long barrelled guns from the sea
Say what wind from the south brings a messenger here
With the hymn of the dawn for the free
Goodly news, goodly news do I bring youth of Forth
Goodly news shall you hear Bargy man
For the boys march at dawn from the south to the north
Led by Kelly the boy from Killan
Tell me who is that giant with the gold curling hair

It's a secret known only to Him
In this world of fear and doubt
On my knees I ask the question
Why a lonely, heavy cross I must bear
Then he tells me in my prayer
It's because I am trustworthy
He gives me strength far more than my share
Known only to him are the great hidden secrets

Sweet memories
Flashing very quickly by
Reminding me
And giving me a reason why
I know that
My goal is more than a thought
I'll be there
When I teach what I've been taught
And I've been taught
You know we've told you before
But you didn't hear us then
So you still question why
No! You didn't listen again
You didn't listen again
Sweet memories
I never thought it would be like this
Reminding me
Just how close I came to missing
I know that
This is the way for me to go
You'll be there
When you know what I know
And I know
You know we've told you before
But you didn't hear us then
So you still question why
No! You didn't listen again

There's a wreath on the door
She don't live here no more
As of today, she flew home
And we all gathered here
In sorrow and tears
It won't be the same with her gone
There's a place on the hill
That's peaceful and still
Where she'll sleep beside daddy again
The ole' family tree is shedding its leaves
But we'll all met in Heaven again
Oh, she's an angel
Let her fly, let her fly
She's gone home to glory
To her home in the sky
When God sees her comin'
Heaven's choir will smile
And sing, "Oh she's an angel, let her fly, let her fly
Ooh, she's an angel, let her fly"
She used to rock me when I was a child
Sing "Rock of Ages" and "In The Sweet Bye And Bye"
Her life wasn't easy, oh but how hard she tried
You know she's an angel, Lord, so let her fly
Oh, she's an angel
Let her fly, let her fly
She's gone home to glory
To her home in the sky
When God sees her comin'

Love can grow in the strangest places
Might find love in strangers' faces
Find it on a mountain top or a valley low
Love can grow where you least expect it
Nurtured by a kiss or a tear that wets it
Love will grow if one just lets it
Let love grow
I know you have feelings for me too
But you're afraid to try to love again
I know your heart is true
I'll do my best to prove that I'll be here for you
Please say you'll let me in
Love can grow in the strangest places
Might find love in strangers' faces
Find it on a mountain top or a valley low
Love can grow where you least expect it
Take a chance, don't reject it
Love will grow if one just lets it
Let love grow
If I could I'd ease your doubts for good
I'd put your heart at ease, just don't give up
What do you say we try and go that extra mile
A chance that you and I find love we're worthy of
Love can grow in the strangest places
Might find love in strangers' faces
Find it on a mountain top or a valley low
Hindsight's always out to blind
Look ahead, not behind you
Look for love and let it find you
Let love grow
It's a chance that's worth the takin'
Love is out there for the makin'
Shinin' in the eyes of someone that you know
In any color, shape or fashion
There is no denyin' passion
Love is always everlastin', let love grow
Love can grow in the strangest places
Might find love in strangers' faces
Find it on a mountain top or a valley low
Love can grow where you least expect it
Nurtured by a kiss or a tear that wets it
Love will grow if one just lets it
Let love grow
I'm tellin' you, love can fill the empty spaces
Dry our tears and all their traces
Mend our broken hearts and heal our souls
Any color, shape or fashion
There is no denyin' passion
Love is always everlastin'
Let love grow
Come on and let love grow
Take a chance and let love grow

If you run out of luck don't give in to hate
Just find a new direction before it's too late
If you hear them knocking on my door
Just say that I'm not here I can't take it any more
Well I'm leaving town and I won't be 'round
'Til I reach my destination, tell the world I'm underground
And it won't be long now that I've found love
Gonna search the whole world over find a place where I belong
Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
Can't you see all the good that's inside of me
Let me be, let me be oh I'm innocent, let me go
I'm gonna walk my walk, talk my talk
Don't need no-one's approval, gonna make it on my own
Gonna have my say, gonna fly away
From this bureaucratic nightmare and social decay, oh yeah
I've found out yeah, I found love
Gonna stick to my dreams, gonna blow this world away
Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
Can't you see all the good that's inside of me
Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent, let me go

Brightly beams, our father's mercy, from his lighthouse evermore
But to us, he gives the keeping, of the lights along the shore
Let the lower lights be burning, send a beam across the wave
Some poor fainting struggling seaman, you may rescue you may save (you may save)
Dark the night of sin has settled, loud the angry billows roar
Eager eyes are watching longing, for the lights along the shore
Let the lower lights be burning, send a beam across the wave
Some poor fainting struggling seaman, you may rescue you may save (rescue, you may save)
But to us, he gives the keeping, of the lights along the shore
Let the lower lights be burning, send a beam across the wave

Somebody, please, if somebody will
Let them take a letter to my girl, Lucille
Let them tell her, Lord, how I'm missing
her still
I think about her constantly
Somebody, please, if somebody can
Let them take a letter from this
lonely man
All I ask is Lord, make her understand
I'll die if she don't wait for me
I heard a rumor from the guys in Cell A
You've served your time and you are
leaving today
Well, there is something you can do
for me to help your old friend
Help me, please
'Cause I've got seven years in this
old pen
Till I'm home again
Somebody, please, if somebody will
Let them take a letter to my girl, Lucille
Let them tell her, Lord, how I'm missing

Somebody, please, if somebody can
Let them take a letter from this

All I ask is, Lord, make her understand
I'll die if she don't wait for me
To hear you tell it, you're all innocent men
But I was guilty, and I'd do it all again
Just to hold her for a minute or two
I'd steal a king's crown, yes, I would
If I don't reach that girl some way, I know
There'll be another man around
Somebody, please, if somebody will
Let them take a letter to my girl, Lucille
Let them tell her, Lord, how I'm missing
her still
Because I think about her constantly
Ugh, somebody, please, if somebody can
Let them take a letter from this lonely man
All I ask is, Lord, why don't you make her
understand because
I'll die if she don't wait for me
Oooooh, somebody, please, if somebody will
Let them take a letter to my girl, Lucille
Let them tell her, Lord, how I'm missing

People are queer, they're always crowing, scrambling and rushing about
Why don't they stop someday, address themselves this way?
Why are we here? Where are we going? It's time that we found out
We're not here to stay; we're on a short holiday
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, go, go
So keep repeating it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life, to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you've never owned?
Life is just a bowl of cherries
So live and laugh at it all
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious

To take my plunge 'round the Empire State
You'll admit it's not the berries
In a building that's so tall
There's a guy in the show, the girls love to kiss
Get thousands a week just for crooning like this
Life is just a bowl of . . . aw, nuts!

So live and laugh at it all
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious
At eight each morning I have got a date
To take my plunge 'round the Empire State
You'll admit it's not the berries
In a building that's so tall
There's a guy in the show, the girls love to kiss
Get thousands a week just for crooning like this
Life is just a bowl of . . . aw, nuts!
So live and laugh at it all!
Why don't they stop someday, address themselves this way?
Why are we here? Where are we going? It's time that we found out
We're not here to stay; we're on a short holiday
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, go, go
So keep repeating it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life, to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you've never owned?
Life is just a bowl of cherries
So live and laugh at it all
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious
At eight each morning I have got a date
To take my plunge 'round the Empire State

There's a guy in the show, the girls love to kiss
Get thousands a week just for crooning like this
Life is just a bowl of . . . aw, nuts!
So live and laugh at it all!
Why don't they stop someday, address themselves this way?
Why are we here? Where are we going? It's time that we found out
We're not here to stay; we're on a short holiday
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, go, go
So keep repeating it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life, to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you've never owned?
Life is just a bowl of cherries
So live and laugh at it all
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious
At eight each morning I have got a date
To take my plunge 'round the Empire State
You'll admit it's not the berries
In a building that's so tall
There's a guy in the show, the girls love to kiss
Get thousands a week just for crooning like this
Life is just a bowl of . . . aw, nuts!
So live and laugh at it all!

It's been a long dark night
And I've been a waitin' for the morning
It's been a long hard fight
But I see a brand new day a dawning
I've been looking for the sunshine
'Cause I ain't seen it in so long
But everything's gonna work out just fine
Everything's gonna be all right
That's been all wrong
'Cause I can see the light of a clear blue morning
I can see the light of a brand new day
I can see the light of a clear blue morning
And everything's gonna be all right
It's gonna be okay
It's been a long, long time
Since I've known the taste of freedom
And those clinging vines
That had me bound, well I don't need 'em
'Cause I am strong and I can prove it
And I got my dreams to see me through
It's just a mountain, I can move it
And with faith enough there's nothing, nothing, I can't do
And I can see the light of a clear blue morning
And I can see the light of brand new day
I can see the light of a clear blue morning
And everything's gonna be all right
It's gonna be okay
I can see the light of a clear blue morning
I can see the light of a brand new day
Yes I can see the light of a clear blue morning
And everything's gonna be all right
Everything's gonna be all right
Everything's gonna be all right
It's gonna be okay
'Cause I can see the light of a clear blue morning
I can see the light of a brand new day
Yes I can see the light of a clear blue morning
Everything's gonna be all right
It's gonna be okay
I can see the light
I can see the light
It's gonna be all right
It's gonna be all right
I can see the light
I can see the light
It's gonna be all right
It's gonna be all right
And I've been a waitin' for the morning
It's been a long hard fight
But I see a brand new day a dawning
I've been looking for the sunshine
'Cause I ain't seen it in so long
But everything's gonna work out just fine
Everything's gonna be all right
That's been all wrong
'Cause I can see the light of a clear blue morning
I can see the light of a brand new day
I can see the light of a clear blue morning
And everything's gonna be all right

BEN:
When the winds are blowing
CHORUS:
Yes!
BEN:
That's the time to smile
CHORUS:
Oh!
BEN:
Learn how to laugh
Learn how to love
Learn how to live
That's my style
When the rent is owing
CHORUS:
Yes!
BEN:
What's the use of tears!
CHORUS:
Oh!
BEN:
I'd rather laugh
I'd rather love
I'd rather live
In arrears
Some fellows sweat
To get to be millionaires
Some have a sport
They're devotees of
Some like to be the champs
At saving postage stamps
Me, I like to live
Me, I like to laugh
Me, I like to love
Some like to sink
And think in their easy chairs
Of all the things
They've risen above
Some like to be profound
By reading Proust and Pound
Me. I like to live
Me. I like to laugh
Me, I like to love
Success is swell
And success is sweet
But every height has a drop
The less achievement
The less defeat
What's the point of shovin'
Your way to the top?
Live 'n' laugh 'n' love 'n'
You're never a flop
So when the walls are crumbling
CHORUS:
Yes!
BEN:
Don't give up the ship
CHORUS:
No!
BEN:
Learn how to laugh
Learn how to love
Learn how to live
That's my tip
When I hear the rumbling
CHORUS:
Yes!
BEN:
Do I lose my grip!
CHORUS:
No!
BEN:
I have to laugh
I have to love
I have to live
That's my trip
BEN:
Some get a boot
From shooting off cablegrams
Or buzzing bells
To summon the staff
Some climbers get their kicks
From social politics
Me, I like to love
Some break their asses
Passing their bar exams
Lay out their lives
Like lines on a graph
One day they're diplomats
Well, bully and congrats
Me, I like to love
Stop!
Stop!

Hey up there
Way up there
Whaddya say up there

Please don't be offended if I preach to you awhile,
Tears are out of place in eyes that were meant to smile.
There's a way to make your very biggest troubles small,
Here's the happy secret of it all.
Look for the silver lining
When e'er a cloud appears in the blue.
Remember some where the sun is shining,
And so the right thing to do,
Is make it shine for you.
A heart, full of joy and gladness,
Will always banish sadness and strife.
So always look for the silver lining,
And try to find the sunny side of life.
As I wash my dishes, I'll be following your plan,
Till I see the brightness in ev'ry pot and pan.
I am sure your point of view will ease the daily grind,
So I keep repeating in my mind.
Tears are out of place in eyes that were meant to smile.
There's a way to make your very biggest troubles small,
Here's the happy secret of it all.
Look for the silver lining
When e'er a cloud appears in the blue.
Remember some where the sun is shining,

So always look for the silver lining,
And try to find the sunny side of life.

Till I see the brightness in ev'ry pot and pan.
I am sure your point of view will ease the daily grind,
